I am writing in favor of amending the regulation to adapt the ADA Code of Ethics. For a number of year's there hasn't been anything in the Regulations concerning ethics and I feel this needs to be addressed. The ADA Code is clear and concise. It states what is ethically important and would provide something concrete for Virginia dentists. There is precedence to use the ADA Code given the Board of Dentistry has adapted ADA language for CDT coding and sedation guidelines. Other states have done the same.
